Example;

Design setpoint is at 44 F. On a reduction in load,

the capacity of the unit will be reduced to zero
when return water temperature drops to 44 F, and
unit will cycle off.

WARNING:

Any

alteration

of factory settings,

except design setpoint, without Carrier authori­
zation, may void the Carrier

warranty.

DESIGN SETPOINT ADJUSTMENT

When unit is ready for operation, insert small

screwdriver in adjusting slot (Fig. 8) and rotate to
turn dial (dial may also be turned by hand). Rotate
until the design setpoint for the installation appears
directly under the pointer. Insert a thermometer in
the

return chilled water connection and allow the

unit to run thru a cycle. At the instant the last step of
capacity unloads (switch no. J opens), read the tem­
perature. If it is not the same as the dial reading, the

variation can be compensated by shifting the control

point slightly.

('.•\l ' I K ; N : Do not force the dial past the stop.

This could cause loss of the control point and

damage

the instrument.

CYLINDER UNLOADING SYSTEM

Each unloading device is of the cylinder head

bypass type and unloads 2 cylinders when operating

solenoid is energized. Cylinder unloaders are ener­
gized

and

de-energized

by

load

switches

in

the

temperature controller.

Steps under Cylinder Bank Loaded and Cylinder

Bank

Unloaded

refer

to

numbered

callouts

on

Fig. 9 and 10.

Cylinder Bank Loaded (Fig. 9)

1.

With solenoid valve

not energized, gas bypass

port is closed by solenoid valve stem.

2.

Discharge manifold pressure extends thru the

strainer

and

bleed

orifice

into

solenoid

valve

stem chamber and behind bypass piston.

3.

Refrigerant

pressure

overcomes

bypass

valve

spring pressure and forces piston forward closing
the bypass from the discharge manifold to the
suction manifold.

4.

Cylinder bank discharge pressure forces open the

discharge

piston

check

valve.

Refrigerant

gas

enters the discharge manifold.

As long as the solenoid valve is

not energized, the

cylinder bank will continue to operate fully loaded.

Cylinder Bank Unloaded (Fig. 10)

1. When solenoid valve is energized, gas bypass port

is opened by solenoid valve stem.

2.

Discharge manifold pressure extends into sole­

noid

valve

stem

chamber

and

behind

bypass

piston.

3.

Open gas bypass port allows pressure to bleed

into suction manifold causing reduction of pres­

sure behind bypass piston.

4.

When bypass valve spring pressure overcomes

gas

pressure

behind

piston,

the

piston

moves

back, opening bypass from discharge manifold to

suction manifold.

5.

Cylinder discharge pressure on face of check

valve piston is reduced and discharge manifold
pressure closes check valve. The cylinder bank is
now isolated from discharge manifold.

As long as solenoid valve is energized, cylinder

bank will operate fully unloaded.
